Congrats to Ben Bellizzi, whose short story, “Clean, Straight Lines,” has been included in the 2011 BANRR anthology‘s Notable Reading list (click the “Notables” tab). This popular series of anthologies is edited by Dave Eggers and the students at his San Francisco writing center, and the 2011 edition is introduced by Guillermo del Toro. Bellizzi is mentioned on p. 484. Big props!
Issue 10 contributor, Annam Manthiram‘s debut, After the Tsunami, is available from the Stephen F. Austin University Press. NewPages listed this haunting tale as a “New and Noteworthy Book,” and The Albuquerque Journal praised it as “A harrowing story of youth survival.” Congrats, Annam!
In recognition of our tenth anniversary in 2011, we received this lovely write-up in our local paper, the East Bay Express. And yes, the original editors were really sitting by a fireplace on that Monday so long ago. Thanks to all our readers and writers for many years of awesome!
Marissa Bell Toffoli of Words With Writers sits down with the Monday Night editorial team for an interview. Read about what we’re reading, how we read submissions, and what we like to eat. Thanks, Marissa! And congrats on being a finalist in Adult Fiction in the GoodReads Independent Book Blogger Awards.
